Sure! Here's a basic distinction between items that create mood and those that create tone.

Things that create mood:

  • Imagery
  • Setting
  • Diction (specific word choices that evoke feelings)
  • Description of weather or surroundings
  • Symbolism (objects or events that represent larger ideas)
  • Character emotions and reactions

Things that create tone:

  • Author's word choice (specific diction that conveys attitude)
  • Sentence structure (variations in length or complexity)
  • Punctuation (exclamation marks, ellipses, etc.)
  • Irony (the expression of one’s meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite)
  • Figurative language (metaphors, similes that indicate attitude)
  • Dialogue (the way characters speak to each other can indicate tone)

If you provide specific items, I can help categorize them further!

Options you can use are, a bitter, sarcastic remark by a grieving wife, two servants in distress, carrying lanterns, two parents stressed over finances, being interrupted by a happy child, a large moor at dusk.

Based on the options you've provided, we can categorize them into "Things that create mood" and "Things that create tone" as follows:

Things that create mood:

  • Two servants in distress, carrying lanterns
  • Two parents stressed over finances
  • A large moor at dusk

Things that create tone:

  • A bitter, sarcastic remark by a grieving wife
  • Being interrupted by a happy child

This categorization is based on the fact that moods are often created by the overall feeling and setting of a scene, while tone is more related to the author's attitude as expressed through specific language and interactions.

two parents stressed over finances, being interrupted by a happy child is one whole sentence.

Thank you for the clarification! Based on that information, here’s how to categorize your items:

Things that create mood:

  • Two parents stressed over finances, being interrupted by a happy child
  • A large moor at dusk
  • Two servants in distress, carrying lanterns

Things that create tone:

  • A bitter, sarcastic remark by a grieving wife

In this arrangement, the first category relates to the emotional atmosphere created by the situations, while the tone is conveyed through the specific remark made by the grieving wife.
